Kanye West calls Elon Musk ‘half-Chinese’ on Instagram, here’s what Twitter CEO said – Times of India
West, who is now known as Ye, has taken a dig at Musk in a post on Instagram after the “Chief Twit” had the artist’s account suspended again for “incitement to violence.”
In response to the suspension, West said on Instagram that Elon Musk is a “genetic hybrid” and could be “half Chinese”.
“Am I the only one who thinks Elon could be half-Chinese? Have you ever seen his pics as a child? Take a Chinese genius and mate them with [a] South African supermodel and we have an Elon. I say an Elon because they probably made 10 to 30 Elons and he is the first genetic hybrid that stuck…Well let’s not forget about Obama,” West said on his Instagram profile which has 18.4 million followers.
Soon, the “news” was shared on Twitter and news aggregator The Bias tweeted about. Musk replied to the post saying “I take that as a compliment!”
@thebias_news I take that as a compliment!

Musk says Ye’s post violated Twitter’s rule
Soon after he received warm reception on Twitter, Ye posted an image that featured a Swastika symbol, infamously associated with the Nazis, intertwined with Star of David, which is a recognised symbol of both Jewish identity and Judaism. Musk claimed that by posting the image, Ye again violated Twitter’s rule against incitement to violence and his account will be suspended.
Just before his account was suspended, Ye had posted a rather unflattering photo of Musk.
The Twitter owner calmly clarified that Ye’s account “is being suspended for incitement to violence, not an unflattering pic of me being hosed by Ari. Frankly, I found those pics to be helpful motivation to lose weight!”
